$\"5sqrt%28x%29+-+sqrt%28x-1%29+=+6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5sqrt%28x%29+=+sqrt%28x-1%29+%2B+6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Square both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"25x+=+%28x-1%29+%2B+12sqrt%28x-1%29+%2B+36\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"24x+-+35+=+12sqrt%28x-1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Square again
\n" ); document.write( " $\"576x%5E2+-+1680x+%2B+1225+=+144%28x-1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"576x%5E2+-+1824x+%2B+1369+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Just a quadratic now.\r
